“Trust is faith. Faith is believing in what we cannot see.

For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” (2 Corinthians 4:18)

Trust is letting go. Trusting God is also trusting yourself as spirit. As spirit you are aware of more information than you can bring into the body. As spirit you do know what you are doing.

A story: There is a woman climbing and she gets to a place where she loses her footing and falls. As she is falling, she grabs onto a root that is growing on the side of the mountain. She is only holding onto this root; the rest of her body is dangling in midair. She knows how far down it is because she climbed the mountain. In desperation she calls out, “Oh, Lord, HELP!!!”

The Lord replies, “Let go of the branch.” She holds on even tighter, terrified at this thought and then yells again, “Is anybody else up there?”

What about you? Where are you in this story? Are you in the air falling? Have you found a branch to hold onto that you know isn’t strong enough to hold onto forever? Are you afraid to let go?

Are you looking for someone or something other than God- words other than, “Let go.”?

Where are you?

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.” (John 14:1-4)

Trusting God – is a leap in faith. Trusting God is not a partial decision.

Trusting God is letting go – letting God. Right beneath her dangling feet there was a ledge.
